The apparent total demolition of the car below didn't square with the Washington Post's account of the accident. On inquiry in a car-buff newsgroup, I learned that this is what a car might look like after rescue workers had cut away the body to rescue trapped occupants. So this image decorates the story nicely but confuses rather than clarifies it.

The photo below seems to be of a long-after-the-fact situation similar to that described above, except that here we're looking at part of a car body instead of the chassis.
